Page languages and the original language

Guests switch language with a button above the menu. Names and descriptions in other languages are typed by you or translated automatically.

Turn languages on

1. Open "Menu settings" → "Language and money". Menus → Menu settings → Language and money
2. In "Language the dishes are typed in" choose the language you write the names in. If you leave "Not set", guests see the word "Original" in the switcher instead of a language name.
3. Under "Languages the guest switches between" tick the languages you need. The original language is not offered in this set: there is no point in translating it into itself.
4. Changes save by themselves. The number of translation languages is limited: once the limit is reached an extra language cannot be ticked, so untick one to choose another.

What happens next

• As soon as at least one language is chosen, the "Translations" tab appears. There you type translations or start auto-translation. Menus → Translations
• An unticked language disappears for guests, but its translations are kept: tick it again and they are back.
• The service's own labels, such as the basket, search and days of the week, switch to the chosen language by themselves. You only translate what you wrote: dish names and descriptions, categories, the venue header.
• While a line is not translated, guests see the original.
• Once languages are chosen, an "Order language" block also appears in this section: the language in which staff read an order.

Currency

In the "Money" block of the same section you set the "Currency" and its "Position": "After the price" or "Before the price". Do not type the currency into the prices themselves.
